In reply to: How to Get Rid of /?S at End of URL’s in Google IndexStill getting these showing up with urls ending with things like:
/?s=word+wordOr like what I posted in the first post here. Anyone have any ideas how I can avoid these coming up? They’re showing up like in Google Analytics, like they’re queries that someone has searched for, yet the urls don’t exist on my site. Then they end up showing up in my Google Webmaster tools dashboard.
Anyone? Would like to get this resolved. Thanks again.

In reply to: Suddenly getting 403 Forbiden error on one page only ?where do pages i create go ?
From your admin panel you can create ‘pages’ or ‘posts’. If you have something that you perhaps scanned and wanted to use as a ‘page’ you could load it into the upload folder through your ftp (like you would an image) if it’s named as a .jpg or .gif file, or you could upload it directly into a post or page from the admin panel using the add image tool, (again assuming it was saved as a .jpg or .gif file).
Would that work for what you need to do?

In reply to: Themes not showing rightWhat about the default theme? Does it display in the browser correctly? Also, did you install some plugins that may be causing the problem? I assume the themes are compatible with 2.9.2, from the way you worded your post, otherwise I would suggest double-checking those too.

In reply to: SUGGESTIONS for reducing user registration spam?While it’s not possible to stop all spammers, if you don’t already have BadBehavior installed, it will help block some of those from registering.

It will also block black listed ip’s etc from other potential malicious activity.

As Esmi suggested:Check with your hosts that mod_rewrite is still enabled.
Your host may have made a change. Send a support ticket to your host and bring the issue to their attention.

In reply to: my categories got deletedLifeflame,
If you haven’t already tried this:
Go into your widget area. Move the activated category widget into the deactivated area. Save the change, then go back in and reactivate it to where you want it. I had to do that after making a theme change, and it worked for me (in 2.9.1). Not sure if it would affect the challenge you’re having, but if your category widget is still in the admin panel give it a try.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Hacked 5 times! :(Kargo,
What about uploaded images on your site? I didn’t see if you mentioned checking those, or checking for images you didn’t upload. They could contain hidden codes.Did you look in your log files to see if you can identify their entry?
Also, to check your themes you can install the plugin ‘TAC’ for theme authentication, to identify if a theme is safe or not. Hope things get resolved for you soon!

In reply to: send xmlrpc post request via http with tcl clientHi Josephscott,
No, I don’t have specific info regarding it – just being on guard and cautious. And yes, bots are always trying to attack, which as you say isn’t a surprise. It’s good to hear there aren’t any issues with the xml-rpc. 🙂

In reply to: How to practice without going live/publishing?Settings > Privacy > Then select:
“I would like to block search engines, but allow normal visitors.”Although your site would essentially still be live, you won’t have the search engines crawling it until you’re ready. At that time then you would want to be sure to change the setting.
You could also use a plugin like this, although you won’t see your changes on the front end while you’re practicing.

That plugin shows it’s compatible up to: 2.8.4Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Creating a quizDid you look in the plugin directory? Maybe this?

In reply to: edit image doesnt workI mentioned the plugins, because I thought you might perhaps have an image plugin that could be causing issues.
